Abstract

A method of protecting life, property, homes and businesses from wild fire by applying environmentally-clean anti-fire (AF) liquid spray using a wireless system network supported by GPS-tracking techniques. Intelligence is collected and GPS-specified maps and reports are generated on the wireless system network informing when environmentally-clean anti-fire (AF) chemical liquid should be spray applied to GPS-specified property parcels, prior to the arrival of wild fires, using GPS-tracking AF chemical liquid spraying systems. The preferred clean anti-fire chemical liquid does not depend on water to inhibit the ignition of fire and flame spread, so that, even after a month or two after spray application on buildings and dry brush around homes and the neighborhood, the clean anti-fire chemical continues to work by inhibiting fire ignition and flame spread, and the ability of a wild fire to advance and consume property and homes.

Dependent claims

A method of protecting life, property, homes and businesses from wild fire by applying environmentally-clean anti-fire (AF) chemical liquid spray using a wireless system network supported by GPS-tracking techniques, a wireless communication infrastructure and a network database system, said method comprising the steps of:

(a) registering on said wireless system network, each GPS-specified parcel of real property in a specified region of land, which may or may not have buildings constructed thereon;
(b) collecting intelligence relating to risks of wild fires in the region surrounding each said GPS-specified parcel of real property, generating anti-fire (AF) spray protection maps and reports for use by personal deployed to the field surrounding said GPS-specified parcels of real property, and storing collected intelligence in said network database system;
(c) deploying one or more AF chemical liquid spraying systems for spraying one or more of said GPS-specified parcels of real property with environmentally-clean AF chemical liquid spray;
(d) providing a supply of environmentally-clean AF chemical liquid spray for application at one or more of said GPS-specified parcels of real property by one or more of said AF chemical liquid spraying systems;
(e) based on the GPS-specified anti-fire (AF) spray protection maps and reports, said wireless system network issuing orders to apply environmentally-clean AF chemical liquid spray on one or more of said GPS-specified parcels of real property using one or more of said AF chemical liquid spraying systems;
(f) executing orders and applying environmentally-clean AF chemical liquid spray on said GPS-specified parcels of property using said one or more AF chemical liquid spraying systems;
and
(g) said wireless system network remotely monitoring the consumption and application of environmentally-clean AF chemical liquid spray at the GPS-specified parcels of real property on a given time, and date, and automatically recording the application of environmentally-clean AF chemical liquid spray in said network database system prior to the presence of wild fire in the region of land;
wherein, if and when said wild fire reaches said GPS-specified parcels of real property, molecules in said applied environmentally-clean AF chemical liquid spray, clinging onto said GPS-specified parcels of real property, protect said GPS-specified parcels of real property from fire ignition and flame spread.

(a) registering on said wireless system network, each GPS-specified parcel of real property located within a specified region of land, which may or may not have buildings constructed thereon, and being owned by one or more property owners who may have hired one or more contractors to care for the GPS-specified parcels of real property;
(b) deploying one or more AF chemical liquid spraying systems for spraying one or more of GPS-specified parcels of real property with environmentally-clean AF chemical liquid spray;
(c) providing a supply of environmentally-clean AF chemical liquid spray for spraying GPS-specified parcels of property using one or more of said AF chemical liquid spraying systems;
(d) prior to the arrival of a wild fire to the region, said wireless system network issuing requests to property owners, and/or contractors thereof, to apply environmentally-clean AF chemical liquid spray on one or more of said GPS-specified parcels of real property using one or more of said AF chemical liquid spraying systems;
(e) in response to the issued requests, the property owners and/or contractors thereof applying environmentally-clean AF chemical liquid spray on one or more of said GPS-specified parcels of real property using one or more of said AF chemical liquid spraying systems;
and
(f) said wireless system network remotely monitoring the application of the environmentally-clean AF chemical liquid spray on the one or more of GPS-specified parcels of real property on a given date, and automatically recording the application in said network database system;
wherein, if and when said wild fire reaches said GPS-specified parcels of real property, molecules in said applied environmentally-clean AF chemical liquid spray clinging onto said GPS-specified parcels of real property, protect said GPS-specified parcels of real property from fire ignition and flame spread.
